Re: This Lineup Sucks. Coachella Can Suck It!

Nothing. I think its pretty eclectic and strong. I don't get why they think Phoenix is headline worthy and it could use a few more DJs. But that's pretty much it. I just wanted to make a thread for complaints and a thread to praise

Re: This Lineup Sucks. Coachella Can Suck It!

Thrilled that there is not a lot of crappy Djs (David Guetta anyone?), tired old hip hop, or shitty pop pretenders (thank god Timberlake wasn't invited). This lineup actually feels to me like GV takes its mission seriously: good music, for all times...

Re: This Lineup Sucks. Coachella Can Suck It!

I think that must be the consensus. Good lineup overall. Crap headliners Sat/Sun (really, RHCP? Come on.) I think they should have taken some of the Saturday bands that will inevitably conflict and spread them to Sunday. Maybe New Order or Nick Cave could have headlined Sunday instead.

Re: This Lineup Sucks. Coachella Can Suck It!

I think it is pretty weak. A lot of the DJs that are not crappy are awesome, but play all the time. Love Maya Jane Coles, Disclosure, and Hawtin, but its not like they are rare acts. Excited for The Stone Roses, but shouldn't headline, RHCP doesn't even have John Frusciante, The XX are subheadliners? First two electronic names on Saturday are Knife Party and Benassi? There are definitely some awesome artists playing, but I don't understand how anyone thinks this is a great lineup compared to previous years...This will also be my 6th year, so I am not a "new" coachella goer, just stating my opinion.

Re: This Lineup Sucks. Coachella Can Suck It!

Last year was horrendous. Coachella hedged their bets with the two weekend thing by bringing in tons of cheesy edm. This year is pretty fucking amazing, who goes for the headliners anyway? I think the edm is top notch overall, but I don't live in a market that pulls good underground dj's often.

Re: This Lineup Sucks. Coachella Can Suck It!

Red Hot Chili Peppers are a wet fart, but otherwise it is fantastic. GV seems to be placing a bet on Phoenix's new album blowing the fuck up when it's released, should it happen before Coachella. I figure that they'll be entertaining at least.

Re: This Lineup Sucks. Coachella Can Suck It!

The only thing i don't really understand is New Order not headlining. If RHCP played across the street then I'd close the curtains but I expect to not care for at least one headliner. That's the way it goes.

My Bloody Valentine would've been nice but not worth creating a thread and crying over.
